How to Pass the Bar Exam on Your First Try (Part I of III)

The bar exam is not the same as a law school exam. It’s a completely different animal. You need to focus on three over arching concepts: context, content, and performance. If you fail in any of these concepts, you will likely fail the exam. I was an average student at an average law school. The overall pass rate for the California bar exam that I took was 31%. I passed on my first try and went on to pass two more bar exams in other states. In this three part series, I show you how I leveraged each of the concepts above to pass three bar exams on the first try.
